18 bright ideas for 2018, from flying taxis to companion robots

Sensors embedded in fields relay moisture levels and allow farmers to remotely control their irrigation pumps from their smartphones Not to be outdone, China is researching a vacuum-tube train that it hopes will reach 2,500 m.p.h. But these transit

addition to single vacuum pumps, the core competencies of the Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum range from delivering standardised vacuum systems through to the engineering of tailor-made vacuum solutions for industrial applications with complex performance

SMALL BUT POWERFUL! The Miniature Diaphragm Pumps THOMAS by Gardner Denver has to Offer Impress with Optimum Performance

This vacuum-activated modular robot is equally nasty and neat

“Without going in to more precise and detailed mimicry, this might be functionally enough an advantage in terms of applications The downside of this technique is that, because vacuum pumps aren’t exactly lightweight or portable, the robot must

Nordson MARCH Introduces the New-Generation RollVIA Plasma System for Roll-to-Roll Production in PCB Manufacturing Operations

The RollVIA system is used for plasma applications such as surface activation for improved maximizing product quality and throughput. The fast vacuum pump down and process cycle times further add to the throughput and productivity of the system.

By-wire age is coming; what's missing is trust

But it will give Conti customers in Europe and North America smaller, lighter, electronically controlled brakes that do not use a vacuum pump -- a standard building will be regulatory requirements for some form of safety-system redundancy.
